| Audrey Hepburn Dress Auctioned in NYC |
| Â Â |
|
| A pink cocktail dress worn by Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" was auctioned Wednesday for nearly $200,000 more than six times what the auctioneers expected. The sleeveless dress, worn for the scene in which Holly Golightly discovers her brother has died, sold for $192,000 to a private European buyer at Christie's sale of film and entertainment memorabilia. The iconic black dress she also wore in the film sold for more than $800,000 last year at London auction. Christie's said it had expected the pink dress to sell for as much as $30,000. "The sale was filled with iconic pieces," said Helen Hall, Christie's head of entertainment memorabilia. "It captured people's imagination." Hall said the auction house was pleased with the results of the sale, which brought in $1.2 million. Other items on the block included Marilyn Monroe's script for "Something's Got To Give," with the actress' handwritten notes, which sold for $19,200. A program from President John F. Kennedy's birthday celebration that featured the actress at Madison Square Garden went for $66,000. All the prices include the Christie's commission. Lon's 2 Cents: Some of the realized prices for known movie wardrobe are fairly astounding…though Audrey Hepburn (as well as Marilyn Monroe) pieces will always do well in top auction house sales. Entertainment memorabilia is somewhat of a burgeoning hobby and always present surprises….that's why I love it! Source: ABC News |
